I want to thank you for wearing your Kamala bling. It's so rare to see it, and it does help us who feel afraid around the Maga creeps.

Thank you. I think the MAGA creeps need to know that there are allies about who don't like them very much. They think they can get away with anything. Just wearing the shirt shows them they can't.

For you Walter! Just the fact that you are a man, and not a peewee Herman type guy makes all the difference. The maga cult will not stand up to a strong (in your face guy) man who doesn’t want to flex his muscles. They are cowards mostly and need a platform like maga to spew their hatred towards anyone that doesn’t look like them.

Yup! And that’s why I think it’s important for men to wear their Kamala gear!

Some people are afraid to show their support for Kamala Harris so I encourage everyone to get such shirts!

I am wearing my "Kamala removes stubborn orange stains" shirt and getting lots of "where-did-you-get-this?" 👇 🤣

The enthusiasm surrounding this campaign is at levels NEVER seen before.

Go Kamala!

I only wish Canada could find a new leader with a unifying voice like hers. Justin Trudeau was like that in 2015, but all the air has been sucked out of him by now.

Politics corrupts people it seems.

It sure does in Canada. And then they wonder why the rest of us talk about them as if they were the Devil and the other archangels of Hell.

I have a couple dozen - and counting - Harris/Walz shirts and am wearing one every day until the election, and possibly all the way to the inauguration. I'm in Zoom meetings all the time and it gives me a reach all over the country this way.

Me too. I'm also mixing in some "I stand with immigrants" and "I read banned books" shirts. :) I used my "vote for her, he's a crook" slogan on my substack profile as you can see.

Yeah man, love your perspective and commitment!

Good for you.

I think the smirk is one of entitlement and condescension..."You don't have the right to clean my toilet."

You're right. It's nice to do anything to make them feel ashamed. They should feel ashamed for the disrespectful behavior they support.

“Disrespectful” is an understatement for January 6.

Two of them yelled at me just as I was carrying my Harris sign a few blocks from the Dem office to my house! I was not waving it around — just carrying it normally. They’ll yell at a grandma but not a younger and physically imposing man.

Walter, I'm so glad you are not easily intimidated and can wear your Kamala gear with a smile. I have dealt with the same type of men, gym rats, in my workplace. As a black female they've tried many times to bully and intimidate me. Unfortunately for them I'm not easily intimidated. I applaud people who have the courage like you who are not afraid to publicly show your support for Kamala.

It makes such a difference just to have a person in the room wearing that stuff, even if you don’t say or do anything. The bad guys know they will encounter resistance. Good for you for standing up to them, though I wish you didn’t have to.

Proud White Dude for Kamala here!!!!!

What a great read. We're encouraging wearing the gear here also, one t-shirt at a time as Gov. Walz might say. Like the yard signs, once you see one, they give others the courage to do the same.

It takes courage too, but it gets easier!

2) I was like, is this great specimen of awesomeness single, mayhaps? Oh, no, he's not. Okay.

3) THANK YOU again.

I didn’t realize such a small portion could bench 225. Even if it was 3% that’s still small. With your body type you could probably get to 275 relatively soon. That would be the next big milestone imo. Anywho, I think it’s about time I get some “,la” gear myself and watch MAGA implode.

This is so cool. Very well put. I'm a petite lady in the country and I do feel afraid to put out yard signs. I have a maga maniac across the road who has assault rifles on his Facebook page and that does worry me. Never know when these goons will go off. Thank you so much for your confidence, it's awesome!

Where are you all getting these things? I would love to get some signs and shirts. I donates to many of the candidates in these races, I did get a Cory booker number sticker once. This is Georgia and I don’t do number stickers, during the Obama campaign, my car got scratched up and banged up. But wearing a shirt will be great.
